Benefits of technology

[0027]It is a further object of the invention to provide a system and method which enables a user to customize security attributes of rooms in a collaborative space including a hierarchy of rooms.

Problems solved by technology

The most useful has been E-mail, but this approach results in a large trail or thread of notes as collaboration on a project advances, and these notes have no home or place to reside which is accessible by all team members substantially instantaneously and simultaneously.
People often enter such a thread at different points, and such threads are not efficient in coordinating the work of many different people on a team which may include in-house developers and others, such as remote contractors, outside of an enterprise's firewall.
Previously, in a hierarchical database, security could not be increased in subfiles with respect to a parent file.
In the past, there has been no convenient way to take information off a word processor document and put it on the Internet in one step.
Further, this approach does not present context of a document to the user during the upload process.
These may not be intuitive for the user.
However, these systems, including the transactional replication feature, do not download the security model, and thus are not user filtered in the sense that access control lists, reader filtration, and selective replication are supported at the browser.
This is a time consuming process, and not dynamic in the sense of generating web sites, etc.
Heretofore, a user could not interactively create and modify a web site.
However, there has been no way for the aesthetic characteristics of a parent object to be inherited by its children objects.
The problem in doing this is that such a form is strictly a layout of fields, and there is no logic that defines where and how the data should be stored.

Embodiment Construction

[0083]In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the invention, a collaboration system or teamware server platform is provided which is powered by the Lotus Domino system and uses a standard Web browser. A product implementation of this embodiment is referred to as QuickPlace™. This browser-based product provides a system environment for collaboration in the virtual world of the Internet characterized by rich text editing and drag-and-drop uploading, server-side graphics rendering, scene-based templates (or, wizards) for performing administrative tasks, and hierarchical security.

[0084]In accordance with the invention, a server system is provided which enables users to create space on a network that is easy to create, making them productive right away. All that is required to create that space is a name, a place name, and a password for access. The QuickPlace approach is to give a sense of space where information can be entered and posted, where people go to collect thoughts and co...

Abstract

Collaboration space object model provides for a Place consisting of rooms. A room is made up of pages. Folders are used to organize pages. Members belong to rooms, and are those users authorized to access them. Place type controls the creation of a place, including how many rooms it has, for example. Room type controls the appearance and content of rooms. A form manages the display of data notes. A form can contain fields for containing data and employ scripts to process and compute data. A page is the basic vehicle for content. Content is created using an or importing content from an external source. A member is also a data note, and each place contains its own member directory. A place is created and managed from a client browser in on-line mode and in offline mode with respect to a replicated copy of the space. Room security is independently managed, and security and aesthetics characteristics of subrooms selectively inherited. Room navigation and workflow processing is provided, as are forms creation and uploading from browser to server.
